Get ready, lovebirds – Valentine’s Day is right around the corner on Wed., Feb. 14 and the clock is ticking to get your dinner reservations booked. Luckily, however, here in Jersey City we have no shortage of romantic restaurants.

Whether you prefer upscale Italian, classic American or modern Japanese fusion, there is a romantic eatery for you and your Valentine to enjoy this holiday. Read on to find out where you should book your dinner for Valentine’s Day!

15 Fox Place, located as its name states at 15 Fox Place, Jersey City which is an eight minute drive from your Beacon apartment, is a reservation-only eatery in a private house that features multicourse fixed-price Italian meals.

In a house converted into a restaurant, any meal that you get from 15 Fox Place is quite literally from grandma’s kitchen. Here, the staff, similar to family, is known for being welcoming and accommodating.

Porto Leggero, located at 185 Hudson St, Jersey City which is a 12 minute drive from your Beacon apartment, is an upscale, chandelier-filled venue serving Italian fare in a high-ceilinged space with tall windows.

Although the scene in Jersey City has changed throughout the years, the recipe at Porto Leggero has remained the same: a magnificent open setting dressed in warm jewel tones, a stellar kitchen and highly efficient service. Waterfront restaurants are plentiful along the Gold Coast of the Hudson, but few have a cuisine comparable to Porto Leggero.
